Born Today in 1922: Kim Hunter

Happy birthday to actress Kim Hunter. Initially famous for winning the Oscar for best supporting actress for playing Stella opposite Marlon Brando in A Streetcar Named Desire (1951). She was also in the fantastic A Matter of Life and Death (1946). However, fans of sci-fi, including myself, remember her first and foremost as Dr. Zira in the original Planet of the Apes (1968).
